Share

Hi everyone I am 27 years old and my husband and I have been TTC for 4 years now without any luck. I have PCOS and when I was a teenager I had PID. I ahve been researching none stop in the last few weeks about adoption, fostercare, fertility treatments and becoming pregnant natrually. I have noticed a lot of people are asking about if you can get a period and not ovulate. The answer is NO. It said it may look like your having a regular period but it is actually This bleeding is caused by either a buildup in the uterine lining that can no longer sustain itself or by an estrogen level drop. This is called an anovulatory cycle (meaning no ovulation)
the only way to be sure to see if your ovulating is to chart it.
Another interesting this I found out was with the Ovulatrion predictor kits if you have PCOS you are likley to get a a false positive because in women with PCOS you tend to produce a high LH level anyways which is what is being tested with the kits.
